Current Music Scores A Strike With The Theme Song For Pro Bowling on Fox Sports

Los Angeles, CA (PRWEB) December 23, 2018

Fox Sports has called on their trusted relationship with Current Music, to create the new theme song for the Professional Bowlers Association (PBA). The theme will be used for the PBA Tour and associated programming on Fox, FS1 and Fox Sports Go.

An exciting new multi-year relationship was forged between Fox Sports and the Professional Bowlers Association (PBA). Fox will be the new television partner for the Go Bowling! PBA Tour beginning in 2019 and will be broadcasting the PBA tour games and extensive programming across their channels and platforms.

To sound off the games and complimentary programming, Fox brought on Current Music to create a new twist on the Fox Football Theme. Producer Maddie Madsen worked with composer Aram Mandossian on creating a heavy metal version in the initial direction. After the Fox production team passed the idea around, they requested a few different styles as they considered what the bowling audience would appreciate. Versions included country, Southern rock, 80s arena rock and Americana. After much consideration, Fox producers finally decided to scrap this idea altogether and asked that Mandossian keep his originally composed elements used in one of the versions, remove references to the football theme entirely and create a completely original piece in order to uniquely brand the package.

The premiere the PBA Clash is on Sunday, December 23rd at *2:30 PM ET / *4:30 PM ET *Depending on location

Besides the PBA, Current Music has created original theme songs as well as opening title pop songs for a number of Fox Sports programs. In addition to the PBA theme, Aram Mandossian worked with Current Music for FS1's "NFL Kickoff", as well as a piece for the 2018 Winter Olympics, with singer Brooke Villanyi, which was used throughout the games.
